Thanks guys! Yeah I will just see how I feel and wont base it off MR but at the same time I am in no rush.
Pink - talk will happen eventually whether he wants it or not ;) but I might just do it at a less arming time. Hadn't realized MR effected signs different. I will look into that - thanks!

No worries! I will thanks! He’s not closed off to hearing from me and I won’t have to be demanding anything. I didn’t mean to imply that from my initial post but im not sharing my situation, just looking for input on mr impact on communication and looks like a mixed bag which is good food for thought. As always I’ll use my inner guidance but appreciated all the comments!

IMHO, for any serious talks, I’d wait for MR and the following shadow period to be over. Communication can get jumbled, taken out of context, and just plain misunderstood during MR. Expressing yourself and your POV to someone else can feel like your talking underwater, no matter how hard you try to make sense, or express your perspective, and even though your mouth is moving, it gets lost in translation.
During a conversation that is purposed to effectuate closure, your intention is to clearly express your thoughts, feelings, and your perspective to another person in a manner that they can comprehend and relate to. If that wasn’t the intention, you wouldn’t bother having the conversation. We all know that you don’t actually need to talk to someone to achieve closure, you can just drop the connection and move on. However, when we do feel that a conversation is warranted in attempting to achieve closure, we certainly want to give it our best shot that the other person understands us. So, to increase the probability of that, I’d wait until after Mercury goes direct and the ensuing shadow period is over.
Just the other day my POI H texted me to try and work on our friendship and mid conversation his phone must have autocorrected which caused his text to seem like it wasn’t meant for me, and for me to get all defensive thinking he meant the text for someone else. Then he tried to explain himself, and his phone kept on autocorrecting and he kept on trying to explain himself, but each time it seemed even worse than before. Finally, we both were on the same page and the misunderstanding based on autocorrect was cleared up. It definitely was a classic case of MR and could have resulted in a huge blow-up since our relationship is prone to that anyway.

I don't personally believe in all that mumbo jumbo... Think of all the people that are born during mercury retrograde. Do they all have rotten lives??? doubt it. Just like the number 13 is unlucky, walk under a ladder and put an umbrella up inside. Total BS.
